I just walked out of this place feeling disgusted. I went with my wife and daughter for my wedding anniversary dinner as this place was recommended by someone. Firstly, disappointed with the welcome because the body language of the staff wasn't right. Secondly, we were asked sit next to the toilet and it stunk. We requested for another place and the waiter replied this is what was available and with hesitation we sat next to the toilet as we didn't want to spoil the evening before it started. Funnily there were other tables around us which was empty. The front part of the restaurant had around 4 tables and they were empty. I assume, the remaining tables were all in the cellar as I saw staff walking up and down and I heard lot of laughter and chatter, proper restaurant atmosphere which I wished for.
Now, ordered the starters and to our surprise the menu card disappeared, we had to request for the menu as we didn't order the main course. The orange juice served to my daughter was just overflowing. The plates provided for starters were very dirty and we got it replaced after asking for it.
Literally after starters and 2 glasses of wine we walked out. I did mention about the experience to the staff and the response was let me have a word with the manager and see what can be done, I was shocked with that attitude. I don't know how these guys work in a restaurant or run a restaurant like this.
Trust me it is not an ordinary place. While we sat there few European fellas walked in and asked for a table and they were simply asked to follow down to cellar. We arrived before the other guys but we were made to sit on our own next to the toilet.
Just one thing was very clear, based on that what I can say is, if you're a coloured person my kind advice would be to stay away from this place. There are really other good Italian places around Swindon, definitely not this one.
I wish management and staff change their attitude and remember they live in the UK...
Read moreMy family and I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fratellos, and it was an absolute delight from start to finish. From the warm ambiance to the impeccable service, our experience was nothing short of
Our server Italo, was a true gem. His enthusiasm, knowledge, and attention to detail elevated our dining experience to new heights. He effortlessly guided us through the menu, providing insightful recommendations and ensuring that every aspect of our meal was tailored to our preferences.
Speaking of the menu, the culinary journey reached its pinnacle with the pizza I ordered as my main course. It was nothing short of a masterpiece. The crust was perfectly thin and crispy, while the toppings were a symphony of flavors that danced on my taste buds. It's safe to say that Fratellos pizza ranks among the best I've ever had, a true testament to the skill and passion of the chefs in the kitchen.
The attention to detail extended beyond the food; the ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and inviting, making it an ideal setting for a family gathering. The staff's dedication to creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere did not go unnoticed.
Fratellos is more than just a restaurant; it's an experience that celebrates the essence of Italian cuisine. From the moment we walked in until the final bite, every aspect of our visit was exceptional. I wholeheartedly recommend Itali's to anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience. Our heartfelt thanks to Italo and the entire team for making our family outing truly special. We look forward to returning to Fratellos for more culinary delights...
Read moreDisgusting customer service. Never met with such an attitude. Delivered wrong pizza but didn’t even bother to apologise and that’s after they finally picked up the phone. Said kitchen already closed (that was 10mins prior to closing). Then said will resend but when I asked if they can skip goat cheese this time- basically accused me of lying about incorrect toppings on the pizza so i would get new pizza?? I have only requested not to put goat cheese this time as I knew they will remake the pizza anyway and that was first time i got it to try (took only one bite of the pizza they delivered to see how is it- didn’t really like it). I would have never called them if they didn’t mess it up at the first place . I don’t usually complain. It’s not first time they missed some of my topping and didn’t call before . But this time they missed 3 toppings and added onions which i didn’t want . Completely wrong. I used to order from them last few years and spent almost 2k for their food. Yesterday was a last time. Lost a customer. The way “lady” on the phone spoke to me was unacceptable. It was my birthday and spent last few weeks on the diet waiting for this pizza day to come just so i would end up upset. The pizza they redelivered didnt even have sliced mushrooms like usual but chunks of them which didn’t taste cooked. I can’t even describe how upset I was . Never again. I sent the pizza back with a driver so they could see I...
